RAILWAY MATTERS.
BOSTON AND MAINE.


The patrons Of the Boston and Maine rail-
road will be pleased to learn thathe manage
ment has decided to make a reduction in the
rates for local or single ticket fares lon all its
divisions and branches. The passenger de-
partment has been at work ever since Janu-
airy on the proposed new rate Sheet and it
will be out in few days for distribution.
The new rates will go into effect May /, and
it may be noted that the reduction in fares is
made without solicitation on the part of the
patrons of the road; and, although it is
thought the change will result in yearly
loss of some $4,000 to the company, it has
been determined upon with a desire to do
everything possible for the benefit of the
people on the line of the road. The new tar
LIT will provide for unifurm rate of cents
per mile from Boston to stations between
there and Reading, and cents for all sta
tions beyond Reading These rates will
show variations In reduction from present
fares, but in every case the reduction will
show large per cent. On the Eastern divi-
sion the most noticeable reduction will be
on the branches where the uniform rate of
fare will be cents per mile, where in some
cases it has ceen or cents. On the North
ern division the reduction will be from and
cents per mile to cents. The cents per
mile win also apply to the Worcester, Nashua
and Portland division, where higher rates
have prevailed as an inheritance from the
road before ii was leased

4S2 BROADWAY, NEW YORK, Mar. IL. 1885,
Some weeks ago took severe cold, which set
tied on my lungs suffered great pain, consider
able fever, and, worst of all, found myself with
raeking cough. In the evening went to my box
OF Allcock's Porous Plasters, intending to use
them on my throat, chest and back. Unfortu-
nately my wife had given all the Plasters away,
and the consequence was that spent a sleepless
night. The next day applied an Alleock's Po-
rous Plasters to my throat, one to my chest, and
one between my shoulder blades. BY IL O'Clock
my breathing was much easier. cough almost
stopped, while a gentle Precipitation indicated
that the fever was almost gone. In two days /
was entirely cured. j. l.. JONES.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
THE ORGAN RECITAL.

Mr.. Frederic Archer, the celebrated New
York organist, gave recital at Chestnut
street church Saturday evening to large
and well pleased audience. Mr. Archer is a
musician whose knowledge and skill merit
the esteem in which they have been held by
musical people. The audience Sat-
urday night were loud in their expressions
of approval and encores were frequently de-
handed. The second number on the pro-
gramme Haydn's clock movement was
repdered in a mastery manner, and the Ga
Vote, (Mignon,) was received with especial
favor, as was also the fantasia. The entire
programme, in fact. was delightfully."- rem
dered and it is hoped that Mr. Archer may
again favor Portland people with an exhi-
bition of his art.

Civil Service Reform.

The President stands committed to
civil service reform both by his letter of
acceptance of the nomination, his in
augural address and other utterances,
and by the fact that he owes his election
to Republican votes of those desiring a
reform in the civil service. No candid
man, be he Democrat or Mugwump can
claim that he has kept his promises.
We do not so much object to the course
he has persued as to the false preten-
tons
One of the prominent cases of dis
charge from office for no reason con-
nected with the discharge of duty was
that of Webster, a subordinate of Col
lector Seeberger of Chicago Civil Ser
vice Commissioners, Oberly and Lyman,
in their report of the investigation of
this case said:
Strong political views Webster had
a right to entertain, and during the
time he held public place it was his
right to give at proper times strong ex-
preston to those views. The opinion
is not to be tolerated that because a
man occupies a place in the classified
civil service he must therefore surren-
der his right to take an interest in the
politics of the country. No good citi-
zen will do 50, and 10 degree of activity
in effort to advance the interest of the
party opposed to the Administration
should, provided his partisan activity in
no way interiors with his public duties,
render insecure in the service of the gov
eminent the position Of any person who
does not occupy place, the discharge
of the duties of which affects public
policies.
